President Barack Obama won the Nobel Peace Prize on Friday, the first American president to win the award in his first year in office.

Of course, there is criticism as well:

Thoughts?
This one was really funny!
Interesting article on how having the Obamas in the White House may provide greater opportunities for women of color in other industries.

There's this guy that I've been friends with since my college days—he's smart, well-educated, funny, and nice. As the years go by, we've grown very close to each other. I would love to date him (and I know he'd like to date me), but there is one problem—he has horrible hygiene. He rarely showers or brushes his teeth, wears dirty clothes, and eats very poorly (fast food every day). I have tried bringing up the subject before, but he's brushed it off. The other day, he tried kissing me, and I had to turn my head because his breath was so bad. Now he's hurt and not talking to me.
What do you think is the reason for this decline?
In another thread, I mentioned (once again, lol) that I can't stand my SO's best friend, who is also SO's son's godfather. I like SO's other friends, BTW. Anyway, mrcurious asked why I don't like the guy so I'm posting it here. Feel free to jump in and share your thoughts about your SO's/spouse's friend(s).
Ugh. He's an arrogant _____ (fill in the blanks; I'd like to keep my current screen name
